This episode of ScaleUp Radio features Michael Colling-Tuck, founder of Agency Bristol, a specialist marketing agency helping medical and technology innovators reach both patients and healthcare professionals. With over twenty years in healthcare, Michael has seen how even the most brilliant inventions can fail if no one knows they exist. His agency bridges that critical gap, giving groundbreaking products a fighting chance to reach the people whose lives they can transform.
What makes Michael's story stand out is the combination of deep industry experience, genuine humility, and the relentless curiosity of a founder who has seen the highs and lows of scaling. From watching masterclass marketing moments in China to almost getting it wrong twice with his own cash flow, Michael's honesty about resilience, learning, and leadership gives listeners a real and relatable founder story.
He shares how Agency Bristol crafts campaigns that empower advocates, surgeons, clinicians, and patients, to become the best storytellers for new technologies. It's a blend of creativity, structure, and empathy that transforms technical ideas into powerful messages that resonate with real people.
Whether you're a startup founder or a seasoned business leader, this conversation is a lesson in balancing vision with reality. Michael shows that success doesn't just come from clever campaigns, but from finding joy in the grind, trusting your team, and always learning from the journey.
